Not impressed
The hotel itself was very clean and well maintained. The service was terrible. The hotel staff was rude and very unwilling to help us. We were often misinformed by the staff regarding room charges and businesses in the hotel’s vicinity. The rooms did not have US electrical outlets and the hotel did not have adapters available. We had to find an electronics store in the city to get an adapter. There was no coffee maker in the room -- only instant coffee and tea. The hotel location is pretty far away from the city centre -- a 45 minute bus ride. We did not have a rental car, so we bought the bus pass, but we still had to walk about 15 minutes to get to the nearest bus stop which is right next to the shopping centre. The bus was very helpful because it goes everywhere throughout the city. It was a nice walk toward the shopping centre, but some of the locals mentioned that in the other direction of the bus route, there are some areas that are not safe for walking (especially at night). We did go to one of the restaurants at the hotel once, but we were not impressed with the selection or quality of our meals. We had a lot of fun on this trip, but definitely would not stay at this hotel again!

Great Stay
The room was very comfortable (Egyptian linen anyone?) and tidy. A high speed LAN connection with cable was included, Wi-fi was available for a charge though. The dressing area was well equipped with an iron, board and full-size mirror. The bathroom had a 120V jack with US outlet as well as the standard European connections, and the bathtub was nice and big with a high pressure shower head. I rented a car and found I could get to the Dublin city center in 15 minutes or less (unless there’s a soccer game in town!). The Liffey Valley Mall was a stone’s throw away, a nice convenience. I ate breakfast at the hotel, very satisfying fare. Didn’t get a chance to get a massage or check out the gym though.

CLARION....WON’T RETURN....BUT WOULD EAT THERE!
The rooms were not air conditioned, the window opened about 2 inches....very muggy....stuffy....they did provide ocillating fan, at times very uncomfortable.... KUDOS RESTAURANT worth the trip for excellent food.
Traveler's tip on shopping
a shopping mall is within walking distance but I’d suggest a car drive.
